Terrible UI

Awful to use, not intuitive at all. Would absolutely not recommend this app.

Music portfolio

This is an easy way to have all your music in one place without all the baggage of paper and binders. Easy to annotate during a less and then print out with or without the annotations.

Charged me anyway

I tried the one week free subscription but it charged me anyway and didn’t cancel. And the app didn’t work on some clean scans. Don’t waste your money.

Thank you!

I have updated my review about three times now because, as I’ve used this app, my experience with it has continued to improve. There was definitely a learning curve at first, but after using it for a month or two, I can honestly say this app has made a huge difference in my confidence as I learn the music we’re playing in our band.

I’m an adult beginner flute player, and this app has helped me understand the music and actually see myself improving. Last year, I felt so lost that sometimes I didn’t even want to go to rehearsals because I couldn’t keep up. Now I feel much more confident and prepared, and I truly believe this app is helping me keep up with the group.

I’m so grateful I found this app. Thank you so much for creating something that has made learning music feel so much more manageable and enjoyable!

9.5/10

Have been using this app for a while now after switching from a day-one user of forScore. the syncing is so much more reliable and the web interface is incredible for batch uploading and editing metadata. some feature requests, please: i would love the ability to switch between pieces quickly to edit metadata down a setlist. and the ability to sort folders of setlists in reverse alphabetical order would be top-notch, as using a date-based title means you have to scroll to the bottom of your folder to get to the most recent date. last one is PLEASE INTEGRATE FULL IPAD SUPPORT, not being able to resize or multitask with your app is a huge disappointment for the price that you ask. thanks so much for contributing to make this great!

Super für Straßenmusiker

Übersichtlich zu einem angemessenen Preis. Die Songs lassen sich durch Zuweisung von Setlists und Tags übersichtlich sortieren. Das Einscannen durch die iPad Kamera funktioniert leider nicht fehlerfrei, importieren von pdf Dateien umso besser. Die direkte Zuweisung von Musik, bei mir Playbacks, über Apple Musik wäre wünschenswert, so ist es ein Schritt mehr. Da Umblätternmit dem Pedal ist ebenfalls perfekt, wenn es auch Apps gibt, die dies automatisieren können. Ansonsten rundum gelungen, manchmal funktioniert allerdings die Anmeldung nicht.

Danke!

AI translation

I bought Newzik so that I could specifically hear my part, to help me with my sight reading and practice. The AI translation of the music skips over whole notes, half notes, and doesn’t play eighth notes and sixteenth notes correctly. I’m hoping that over time it gets better.

Superb Optical Music Recognition

I subscribe to Muzak for their OMR (Optical Music Recognition). It rarely makes a mistake. I’ve used more expensive stand-along programs for that and came away disappointed. So for me, the OMR is worth the admission price alone.

Such a confusing app

One of my music sheet is playing in piano and the rest play in flute sounds. I need the flute sound. I don’t know how to change the one music to flute. Confusing app. But for the most part is is helpful.

Perfekt!

Newzik ist perfekt, sowohl in der Handhabung als auch im kundenorientierten Service. Die App ist ihr Geld absolut wert. Als professionelle Pianistin ist die App bei mir seit 2019 täglich viele Stunden einwandfrei in Gebrauch. Newzik entwickelt sich rasant, dabei sehr intelligent, stets im Zeitgeist, ist bei allen neuen Errungenschaften immer vorne mit dabei. Glatte 5 Sterne!

Logic errors when creating MXL files from PDF

The conversion regularly modifies the length of measures in the file. It appears that if the software doesn’t see a bar line or isn’t clear on a note value, it just changes the measure properties. Measure length should be the last thing it modifies. If there is no time signature change, the software should not arbitrarily change it.

Presqu’excellent!

J’apprécie beaucoup cette application qui est devenue mon principal outil de travail. Simplicité d’utilisation, accessibilité directe au Domaine public …
Néanmoins, certaines améliorations pourraient être apportées comme la possibilité de faire des sous dossiers dans les listes.
Quelques bugs récurrents comme la non apparition du clavier qui obligent à quitter et réinitialiser. Heureusement, ça rouvre sur la dernière page.
Globalement très recommandable pour un tout petit prix.

Excellent App, just what I needed.

User for a few years

I have been a user for a few years, and while generally Newzik works better than ForScore for me, there are some problems. Mostly that syncing between the website and the app can experience hiccups, where my iPad will not load the music (yes, it’s connected to the internet) even though it displays on the website.

It would help me a ton if there was a “Rotate Left” button in the rearrange section in addition to the “Rotate Right.”

The other issues are mainly just cosmetic. Namely, switching between pieces puts a big gray box with the piece title in the center of the display. This can be bad if you are playing a gig and have to rapidly switch between PDFs and your first few measures are in the middle of the screen, too! They should also just put a “Setlists” button right on the main screen instead of going to “My Library” first. I can’t imagine I’m the only one who would prefer that. Thank you.

The best digital sheet music app

I’ve tried pretty much every digital sheet music app and Newzik is the only one that just works. It isn’t buggy, the UI makes sense, my music is always available on every device, and it gets out of the way so I can focus on making music. Software should disappear into the background, and Newzik does exactly that. It just works!

It can’t read anything!

Horrible. Just horrible. I put in some of my sheet music,first of all, I did the ai play thing. I understand it may not be accurate,but my sheets were CLEAR AS DAY. It missed a bunch of measures,played quarter notes instead of half notes,and when I set the tempo it starts glitching and showing things like 1500 bpm or 400??? Something is very wrong with this app.
